sourcing rigging blocks in the UK

[Kevin]

good evening everyone

 

some of you are aware i have restarted my Amerigo Vespucci. by Panart/Mantua, which had been on the shelf of doom for many years

and although not copying, i am trying to make it better with some better aftermarket fittings

 

this is my got o log for this build Amerigo Vespucci by schiffebastler - Mantua - scale 1:84 - Italien sail training ship build 1931 - - Kit build logs for subjects built from 1901 - Present Day - Model Ship World™

with 27 sails, i think i will need in excess of 400 blocks of various sizes, where do i source decent ones from in the UK, the one i have are pretty poor to say the least

 

will be a good month or so away from needing them, but obtaining them will take my mind of my next project lol

I think Vanguard Models stock Master Korabel blocks. Not as good as Syren but better than ones Cornwall model boats list.
